Score 90/100 · Drink 2013-2028, Robert Parker, Feb 2011
The beautiful, dense ruby/purple-tinged 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Oliver’s Blend (100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 22 months in 75% new French oak) offers up aromas of graphite, charcoal, black currants, blueberries, loamy soil and damp earth. The complex aromatics are followed by a full-bodied, moderately tannic Cabernet that will benefit from 2-3 years of cellaring and drink well for 15 or more. Tel. (707) 433-9124
